You guys are so steeped in your hate of ObamaCare that you can't even admit that a transition to end user payee would be a good thing.

I think that two issues are being conflated here. I agree with you that it's better if the employee chooses than the employer. That's a separate issue from the constraints on product offerings imposed by ObamaCare. Had we given the employee the salary to buy his own coverage pre-ObamaCare, it might have mattered. But freeing the employee from the employer's choice only to leave him with choices reduced by PPACA is not what it could have been. It's something, but not the whole enchilada. One out of three cheers.
